On Saturday I wrote how R3R was awarded a free ‘scholarship’ pass to BizTechDay, a new conference aimed at entrepreneurs who want to harness technology to promote and grow their businesses. On Sunday I attended the conference, it’s taken me a few days to sit down and share my thoughts on the (mostly) successful event, [...] (more)

There’s a new conference in town – and this time it’s aiming right at you (the small business owner). And we’re proud to say we’ll be heading there tomorrow – courtesy of Comcast (the conference’s top sponsor), who awarded R3R a full pass ‘scholarship,’ based on an application we submitted online.

I just ran across this ad on Facebook for a service called Linkberry. The ad grabbed my eye because it said something like “Create a San Francisco Start Page.” Nice use of geo-targeting (a method of displaying ads based on where the viewer is located).

But in addition to those old favorites, I’m always looking [...] (more)

One of the products I was looking for was a search engine marketing (SEM) tool to help manage multiple accounts across [...] (more)

Normally I would not share the threads from this private group, but in the interest of promoting independent freelance workers, I’m going to pay it forward and share this list of designers who [...] (more)

Several months ago I chose ConstantContact as the e-mail service provider for a client’s small e-mail marketing campaign. I’ve been happy with their service so far, so I’ll continue to share different facets of their offerings.

As a consumer I’ve been a fan of Citysearch for years. I know their service as a great way to get a quick opinion on restaurants, clubs, and other local venues. You take Citysearch reviews with a grain of salt, of course, but they’re more often than not reasonably accurate (the user reviews, that is, [...] (more)

One of the biggest affiliate marketing advantages that most independent affiliate marketers enjoy is the ability to work from home. That can also be one of the biggest challenges in a fast moving industry like performance marketing. When you’re the only person in the room it’s tough to bounce ideas off colleagues. Many in the [...] (more)
